ATV Florida Forum

hey does anone know where some good hill climbs are or just a good hilly area ? near central fl ??

I love hill climbing but there are no LEGAL hills in Fl.  Construction sites and mining pits are the only places to find hills, just hard to get permission.

Tried a constuction site today was very wet and got yelled at by the cops..
Its a first degree felony to be on the site and a big fine and stuff
I wouldnt recomend that one...
But if u can run from the cops the dover mines are awsome..

theres a few in croom, not many at all though, gotta know where to look.

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree. lol    ;)

If you want hill climbs you need to go to Albany Ga. It has huge hills and jumps only about 1 1/2 north of tallahassee

Have you been there? Is it a big area? Huge hills? I will drive for huge hills, but what I consider huge or steep maybe different than you. Any pics of the place?

It's a drive! but the Wagon Wheel area in West Virginia has got hills.  Some will
challenge the best of riders.
It's 10 hours from Jacksonville Fl but well worth it. 
I usually go for 5 ot 6 days .
It's just south of the Hatfield-McCoy trails.
If interested I can provide more details.

Superlift off road park in Hot Springs, AR. has hills I guarentee you can't climb.

I only climb in the Grand Canyon. 2000ft at 80 degree angle! GIT IT TOWEL!!(rag aint big enoug to clean your pants out after those hills)

Then lets plan a trip there, because I guarantee I will try them.

i'm thinking about this summer. Think I'll call it the " Sack Up Ride #5"

Have you been? I thought it was mostly for jeeps and trucks.

matt, goto www.orvpark.com .....looks like fun

wheres this place in Albany,Georgia?? And what kind of riding is it and how big is it

Yea I have been there quite a few times. You can ride an atv on most of the trails except the really stupid dangerous ones. My son and I used to ride all through those hills. I think there would be more than enough hairy shizzit for you Matt. The best part about it is there is an amusement park down the street for the wife and kids so you don't have to here the bitchin.

Idk but last time i had a good hill climb was 3 years ago on a constrution site..
They had a huge hill about 3 loaders high it was awsome cops never came nothing then it was gone..
I have been to croom acouple times caint ever find any hills to climb..
I wanna go somewere were the hills are huge and steep.
I love to climb its just the fall back down that hurts..

Not far at all..
I still wish the willow shore trails were like i always heard about them being..
Went up there acouple times not much of anything anymore abunch of fence's and and no trespasing signs..
Found a very old paved road in the middle of the woods looks like at one time it was awsome..

 if its the same place im thinking of you it is right off hwy 82 in albany turn left on sand lake rd. I use to go there alot. it is not as big as it use to be but alot of hill climbs.

Croom in Brooksville, FL has some hill climbs and cliffs.  Other than that yeah the only other place is construction sites.

I am sure that is where he is talking about, one of the larger hills was right off the main rd in town & there was always people out there without getting hassled. I was there in '96 they were really big then, but what I saw wasnt very steep or dangerous, just really tall.

Try the Hardrock Cycle Park north of Ocala. They have a track called the rollercoaster that is straight up and down. Some of the highest I have seen in FL (that you can legally ride)

If you want to climb real hills, look up a place called the Wagon Wheel, in Bluefield WV.
I have some pics posted in out of state rides. Make sure to bring your balls.
